Took another reading last night before I bottled. The reading was 1.010. So I decided to bottle. Put the priming sugar into my 2nd fermenting bin and then syphoned the beer into it and mixed well. It is now bottled. How long should I leave it in the second fermentation stage? 2 weeks? Then store...

Cheers for that. I'm looking forward to creating many more.

The recipe was : 3.5kg Pale liquid malt extract 400g Crystal Malt EBC 60 50g Challenger Hops 15g Northdowns 15g East Kent Goldings Just trying to make a golden ale really, I prefer lighter colour ales. Do you think the recipe was any good? Any advice would be greatly received...

It's still currently at 22c. Is that still ok? Or do I need to change it?

Took a Gravity reading today, just over a week after brewing, and it has a reading of 1.012. I'm going to bottle next weekend, so it should be done fermenting by then shouldn't it? Cheers, Si

Do you think it will? Because it foamed/frothed from yesterday 2pm until 6am this morning. Just bubbling away. I'd probably say a bubble per second.

It's been in since saturday 6pm. The frothing/foaming has now stopped, just bubbling away in the airlock.

Just making sure that it is ok, very new to this. Ha, I don't think the wife would agree regarding the wallpaper. Cheers, Si

Quick question, does this look right?

Cheers guys, that's great help. I sure will keep you informed. Happy brewing! Cheers, Si

Hi, I am very new to this, my second beer is currently in fermentation. Last night it frothed and foamed out of my airlock and was coming out for hours! It stopped eventually and I re-sanitised my airlock and now it is fine. Will it be ok? Also, for my next brew I want to make a light coloured...
